> [@Gyrate](#): > > Is it worth losing 80% of the content in order to get rid of the other 20%? Would you all be happy if the Pit remained but without the ability to pit board members? I await correction, but my understanding is that those of us (at least me) who are saying “get rid of the Pit” are saying so in the context of the pitting of other posters. I think it is a good forum for blasting the guy in front of you in the checkout line, or Trump, or Biden, or your asshole neighbor that plays his music too loud. > [@Tfletch1](#): > > Didn’t take it as such. Sometimes a goal of driving someone from a thread is not not necessarily a bad thing. I kind of doubt it will work with this guy. Why? I don’t agree with everything he is saying, but what did he say that was so bad that you don’t even want him to post there? Put him on ignore. Just because he doesn’t fall in line with the holy scripture as given by God to the members of this board doesn’t mean his opinions are not worth reading. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/most-common-reason-to-be-pitted-appears-to-be-dishonesty/946422)._
